Choosing Your Nicotine Strength: A Simple Guide

Every Vellixo pouch shows its strength on the tin and on the product page, from 3mg at the lighter end up to 18mg. The right one for you comes down to what you're already used to, not what sounds impressive on the label.

If you're new to nicotine altogether, start low — 3mg or 6mg gives you a mild, easy introduction without overwhelming you. If you're switching over from cigarettes or a vape you use regularly throughout the day, a mid-range strength like 9mg or 12mg is usually a closer match, and you can adjust from there once you know how it feels.

The higher strengths, 15mg and 18mg, are built for people with an established, heavier nicotine habit who want fewer pouches to get the same effect. If you're not sure, it's always easier to start a step lower and move up than to start too strong.

One more thing worth knowing: strength isn't the only thing that changes how a pouch feels. Pouch size, how long you keep it in, and even the flavour itself can all affect the experience — so if a strength doesn't feel quite right, it's worth trying a different flavour at the same strength before jumping up or down.
